Although the QualityWings Boeing 787 came with its own configuration, there were several drawbacks with the way it was set up. The first is that it only gave you the option for one passenger boarding door. The second is that although the catering door positions were set up, it wasn't set to check whether the doors were open or not. Here are the configurations that will allow you to use two boarding doors and have the catering door positions checked before the catering trucks do their thing.

I copy exactly what you have for the 787-9 but for some reasons I get small little vans that come up for catering.
-
That's highly unusual. I didn't even touch the door positions for those doors. All I did was change the parameters for the catering trucks checking the doors.
-
It is definitely strange. By default the catering vehicles are correct as far as the type of trucks but as you stated they don't wait for checks.
-
Ok Kevin,787-8 is ok now,but 787-9 is the same,and also i had a gsx config in the 787-8 but not in the 9(if you know what i mean).So i put one in myself.

Updated configuration. Repositioned the catering trucks to the R1 and R2 position and added the bulk cargo.

Hi,
I have copied the parameters for 789 and re started gsx. The caatering truck at R1 does not see the door is open. Eventhough the door is open and the catering truck at R2 is doing its duty the truck at R1 does nothing and keeps sending the warning " waiting for your action open R1 "
Also wouldn't it be better if the catering was at R1 and R4?
-
any one else having this problem?
-
any one else having this problem?
i have this issue too :/

Sorry to hijack but plus +1, except my issue is with Door L4. I get the beep and warning even though the door is open, i get the warning about opening door L4.
-
Using this setup for the QW 787 at Imaginesim KATL with SODE jetways. But when selecting the jetway to dock, I get a message saying the aircraft door is too high! Unable to dock during extension and during dip. Works fine with PMDGs 777 and 747. Can anyone help me with this or recreate the issue? Thanks
-
Just in case it helps anyone here, I used OP's the first configuration but I took a different approach, I copied only the exit and cargo door portions of the config file, and left the [aircraft] section intact from the provided QW gsx config.
Everything is working perfectly for me on both -8 and -9 models. Might be worth a try if anyones still having problems.
The original QW backup gsx configs should still be in the (p3d root)\SimObjects\Airplanes\QualityWings 787-8 and SimObjects\Airplanes\QualityWings 787-9 folders.

Have you tried the latest beta version of SODE? I think its version 1.6.3. I don't own KATL but it fixed a similar problem FlightBeam KSFO,
-
QW has already contacted the designer of SODE about the problem at KATL and other airports. Saw it on the designers forum.

I am not sure i understand what you mean
I checked the original QW787-8 and 787-9 GSX.cfg and the [aircraft] part is the same than in "Captain Kevin" modified cfg on this thread, so i don't see how keeping the original [aircraft] part will change
anything...

I'm not sure if this makes a difference or not, but there is a slight difference in the aircraft section, Capt. K version has a line specifying "preffered exit=0". In the QW supplied version that line does not exist.
I don't know if that's the reason that the rest of the config works flawlessly for me, but that's what I did, and the thing works. Have you tried it?
-
Here's my first time testing this in P3D V4, Flightbeam KSFO, SODE 1.6.3. Looks like it works fine on my end for both the 787-8 and 787-9.
-
Here's ImagineSim KATL. Also works fine on my end.
-
Kevin,
I also tested with sode 1.6.3 and P3Dv4.2
The main problem is still there. Door R1 keeps asking to be opened even when it is opened and the service is not done

I tried it and it does not work.
Anyway this gsx.cfg behave in a strange manner. When i first used KEVIN's cfg the only problem i had was this service R1 asking for opening the door and nothing happened when i opened it.
Went back to original cfg whic worked as it is supposed too.
Then I tried again the exact same Kevin's cfg posted here and now : gate R1 one still does not understand when gate is open but also the bulk cargo loader is not showing and i got small cars instead of loader showing at service doors.
All this with the exact same kevin's cfg that i used before. ??? :o ::)
-
Okay, THAT makes even less sense. That being said, if THAT'S happening, I'm really not sure what more I can do for you since obviously something's wonky there, and I haven't run into any issues on my end.
-
Yes Kevin, it seems it is out of your control.
Btw thanks for your help and keep giving us some tips and tricks when you got some ;)

With all due respect, I think what you meant was that you tried it and it did not work for you. I was only sharing what what worked for me
I put together a quick video showing that it did work for me if you're interested https://youtu.be/BDP6tcxxqgwin (https://youtu.be/BDP6tcxxqgwin) .
Anyway, I'm sorry it didn't work out for you, and I hope you find a solution.
And at the same time thanks to Capt. K for his time-saving contributions.
-
Kevin your settings work for FSDT KIAH, the only problem I have is that baggage process never finishes. I have tested so many times and I'm not sure what's wrong. Refueling, Catering always completes successfully, but whenever I board or deboard the plane, and after that process it complete, it will automatically start the baggage load/unloading process, and after the trucks finish and move back away from the plane, it still shows baggage load/unload is still in progress. Any ideas on what is making it not want to complete?
-
Might want to have a look at this thread. It seems other people were having this issue with other planes, so somehow I doubt the GSX configuration has anything to do with it.

Hey guys,
I seem to have the small catering vans problem only with the 787-8. Also, there is no cargo loaders nor stairs. Could you please help me out?
Thanks in advance
-
Thanks Kevin! For those having issues, this is what I found works perfectly for me on both the -8 and -9. Kept the 2 boarding doors. But now there are no catering issues where doors are not recognized, no small vans, and no never-ending boarding. Also, I removed the bulk cargo because it was conflicting with the L4 staircase, and I reverted the catering doors to R2 and R4.

Guys
All the issues have to do with the change of local variables QW use in their gauge to manage door opening/closing.
Here is my GSX config for 787-900 :
[aircraft]
nosegear = 24.02
refueling = 0
iscargo = 0

preferredexit = 0

Please note that the "code =" line is different for every single door.
The gsx.cfg has to be put in the root folder of the aircraft.
Keep in mind that if you change the door configuration with the graphical editor, it will create another gsx.cfg file in the AppData\Roaming\Virtuali\Airplanes folder that will override the one in your root aircraft folder.
Hope this helps/

This is my 1st visit here (Virtuali`s tip).
I have P3Dv4.5 & QW787-8 -9. Updated GSX Level 2 to the latest (and huge) update.
EHAM gate F6 everything seems to work (refueling+catering+boarding) until all passengers are boarded. Then GSX keeps warning to close Door 4L although I did it already.
Any idea?

That's the ONLY problem I have had as well, The Door 4L !! Any easy fix for this?
Thanks,
